I thought I had reviewed all my drafts, but it turns out I missed one. I found out that the restaurant had become an official partner with Tabelog, so I decided to make a reservation through the app and visit. It was more convenient to make a reservation through the app than calling. However, I found out that I couldn't use Tabelog-exclusive T-points for payment. I guess reservations can only be made through Tabelog. It's a convenient system, but it's rare to find a place in this remote area that accepts T-points (laughs). I might use the reservation feature again in the future. Today, I ordered the Ichibo, a thigh meat near the buttocks which caught my attention due to its low fat content. The meat was very tender and delicious with just the right amount of marbling. The seared bacon had a strong smoky flavor that almost overshadowed the meat itself, making it a very rich and flavorful dish. Meat lovers would definitely enjoy it. We struggled to finish the meal, savoring pickles in between bites and finally managed to complete it. Next time, I'll order two servings of Ichibo. It was hot, so my friend ordered a half portion of cold noodles and my favorite egg over rice. The rice portion was unexpectedly large, with two raw eggs on top. The eggs were from Oak Leaf Farm in Memuro-cho, with a rich flavor and freshness that made them very delicious. The rice was shiny and freshly cooked, as always. We ended up feeling very full and couldn't order dessert. I feel like my appetite has been decreasing lately.

This is a yakiniku restaurant located in the town of Memuro. The building is a historic red brick warehouse, and inside, there are brick walls, wooden beams, and numerous lights illuminating the dark and fantastical interior. It feels like a lively jazz bar. The mixed hormone set (1100 yen) includes crispy and delicious harami, reliable sagari, juicy beef hormone that oozes with fat when chewed, chewy and flavorful mino that truly represents offal. All of them are delicious! The sweet miso flavor goes well with rice. The grilled onions with a nice charred exterior are also surprisingly tasty. The portion of meat seems smaller than in the menu photos, which was a bit disappointing, but there are plenty of side dishes like cute daikon salad, soup, and pickles. It's a place where you can enjoy a moment of escapism.

Don't just think of it as a regular yakiniku restaurant! It has a dignified atmosphere inherited from the historic brick warehouse. The interior is chic and calm, with a spacious space that both children and adults can enjoy. On special occasions, there is also a VIP room surrounded by a wine cellar. While the typical yakiniku menu is delicious, be sure to try the "seiro mushi"! You can enjoy the marriage of steamed meat, meat juices, and steamed vegetables. It's a 5-minute walk from Memuro Station, so those staying in Obihiro Station can easily make a round trip by train. 😄

This is a restaurant in Me-Muro town operated by local producers who have invested together. They focus on using locally produced ingredients, offering fresh meat by cuts or seasonal vegetables. The restaurant is housed in a renovated brick warehouse, with a high-end hotel-like approach from the entrance to the dining hall. The glass plates displayed in front of the hall are illuminated and look very beautiful. The booths next to each other are separated by dark Venetian glass, providing both privacy and design. They also offer elaborate desserts with orange flavors, and the pricing is slightly on the higher end, more like a high-class establishment than a regular barbecue place. They used to have a limited quantity barbecue lunch for around 650 yen, but that offer is no longer available. However, the lunch menu is still slightly cheaper. The meat served here is from Me-Muro Ushi, known for being non-GMO, antibiotic-free, and raised on feed without post-harvesting. They pay attention to the feed to make the meat tender and provide it at the optimal ripeness. They also offer a variety of lamb dishes, including a special thick-cut Suffolk lamb dish that costs around 2000 yen, making it a luxurious choice. They have limited rare cuts like misuji, which are unique to a direct sales barbecue restaurant. The internal organs like tongue, sagari, and horumon, which require the highest freshness, are of excellent quality. The reviewer personally prefers lean meat or Genghis Khan. They particularly enjoy the rare Suffolk lamb produced by the Mitsumura Men Sheep Ranch in neighboring Shimizu town. The reviewer recommends sharing dishes like the "Beef Hitsu-mabushi" and the "Steamed Seiro." They also praise the delicious onigiri served here, made with perfectly cooked rice. The lean meat they usually order is always tender and free of any unpleasant smell, making it easy to digest. The reviewer also enjoys the boiled potatoes that come with the barbecue, which are aged for two years. The pickles and vegetable dishes are always delicious, as well as the grilled vegetables and salads. The beef stew, served in a hot pot, is flavorful and filled with tender meat. The reviewer suggests that including larger pieces of meat in the stew would be even better. After a satisfying meal, they finish with coffee before heading home. The coffee served here is of a café-level quality, reflecting the overall high standards of the restaurant. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, customers can now order through QR codes using their smartphones, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in the service.

I finally made it to Obihiro, a town known for its delicious Genghis Khan (grilled mutton) after continuously searching for a place to satisfy my craving for yakiniku (grilled meat). Although there are many yakiniku restaurants in Obihiro, I decided to try out a place in Memuro that I had never been to before. The restaurant had a nice brick exterior and offered a variety of dishes, including a daily assorted set, rice, Kagura vegetable salad, lamb Genghis Khan, sagari (skirt meat), red sirloin, and coffee brulee. The salad was larger than expected, so I probably should have stopped there, but I couldn't resist trying the meats. Overall, dining alone can be challenging in terms of cost-effectiveness, so I think it would be better to visit with a friend next time!

It's been a while since my family and I went out to eat. We ordered Tan Shio (1,500 yen x 2), Buta Horumon (550 yen), Genghis Khan (550 yen x 2), Sagari (980 yen x 3), Kimchi assortment (880 yen), Caesar salad (880 yen), Half-size steamed seiro (3,500 yen), Soft drinks (350 yen x 3), Draft beer (550 yen x 2), Otoshi (300 yen), and Coffee jelly soft serve (400 yen). The total came to 17,160 yen. We didn't order a variety of meat types, but everything we ordered was undeniably delicious. The steamed seiro is particularly tasty! Please try it if you have the chance. ♥️

I ordered the Sagari set with rice, salad, and soup, along with a side of brisket with black pepper, diced pork hormone, and salted beef thigh meat. I also ordered the sauce for the Sagari set. The set came with five pieces, so I also ordered a single serving. There are various menu options for lunch besides yakiniku, so it's hard to decide.

I ran into a friend at the beauty salon and decided to have lunch before heading home, so we visited KAGURA. I usually order the menchi-katsu set, but today I tried the horumon set for 900 yen. The flavor was really delicious and the rice went down smoothly. However, even though I love horumon, there were only two pieces in the dish, I wish there were more. My friend ordered the limited horumon nabe set for 980 yen. We let it simmer for about 5 minutes and then enjoyed it. It would have been nice if they brought it out bubbling from the kitchen. After finishing the nabe, my friend mixed rice in the remaining broth and ate it like ochazuke. It was a nice touch and tasted delicious. It's nice to have a hearty lunch once in a while during this season. For dessert, we tried the coffee jelly soft serve for 400 yen. It was a generous portion for the price, a great deal!

I went to Yakiniku KAGURA for lunch! This was my second time having lunch there, this time with 6 colleagues from work. We sat at the large sunken kotatsu table at the back. I ordered the "Beef Sagari Set for 1,080 yen". We ordered about 4 different types of meat, which arrived in about 7-8 minutes. The meat was tender and of high quality, giving a feeling of premium meat. The combination of meat and rice is something you can only experience during lunch. The salad and soup that came with it were also delicious. You can get extra rice or a larger portion if you want. I went for the extra rice and ended up feeling very full. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was stylish and had a moody feel, just like at night. I had a satisfying lunch in this fashionable setting at Yakiniku KAGURA. Thank you for the meal!

I went to Yakiniku KAGURA restaurant! It's a revisit. Today there are some unusual guests - some big eaters! One is a colleague who has always been on the heavier side. After work, we decided to go for some grilled meat. We started with a toast with beer and Calpis. We ordered the following meats: top sirloin with salt, top blade with salt, top blade with sauce, tongue with salt, pork belly, meat-wrapped rice balls, herb egg over rice, assorted namul (Korean seasoned vegetables), Chinese cabbage kimchi, and appetizers. Unfortunately, the recommended rare cut of meat was sold out. The tongue was delicious as always! The top blade had a unique sweetness to it. I don't remember much about the sirloin, but I'm sure it was delicious. I tried a bite of the meat-wrapped rice balls and they were tasty too. Even the egg over rice was a generous portion with two eggs. My colleague loved it. We had about 4-5 beers and enjoyed the delicious meat. Thank you Yakiniku KAGURA for the meal!

25th anniversary. It's called a silver wedding anniversary. We received a celebration gift, so we decided to try some luxurious yakiniku. The restaurant is located in Memuro Town, in a spacious brick warehouse. It's stylish, spacious, and very relaxing. Since it's a special occasion, we decided to order some expensive cuts of meat! However, my hands were shaking with excitement haha. We ordered top sirloin, premium tongue, thick-cut Genghis Khan, and premium kalbi, among others. I forgot to take photos of the menu, but each plate was around 2000 yen. Each piece of meat was around 400-500 yen. The sirloin and tongue were incredibly delicious. As for the Genghis Khan, apparently there is a shortage of lamb right now, so it wasn't as great as expected for the price. But that's about the only negative point, everything else was great. The beer was classic and tasty. The sirloin was delicious even if it wasn't the top grade. The edamame appetizer was also delicious. The seating was comfortable and spacious, making it a great place to enjoy a leisurely meal. Next time, I want to try the regular menu and eat to my heart's content!

Today I went to KAGURA to eat their delicious lunch menu. I couldn't decide between the hamburger or the Future Beef minced cutlet set for 1,180 yen (excluding tax), so I ordered the latter. The minced cutlet was crispy on the outside and filled with plenty of finely chopped onions and coarsely ground meat, cooked to a medium rare with a hint of juiciness. The seasoning was light, allowing the flavors of the meat and onions to shine through, which I personally enjoyed as I prefer milder flavors. The soup had a light flavor with a hint of sesame oil. The vegetables were fresh and tasty. The restaurant was spacious, clean, and had a pleasant atmosphere. The staff provided excellent service, making it a comfortable dining experience. I look forward to coming back next time to try their grilled meat lunch. Thank you for the delicious meal!

A must-visit shop when stopping by Memuro Town. It has a stylish atmosphere and a wide variety of menu items besides yakiniku at a reasonable price. The children also enjoyed eating there. They have a rich selection of desserts, making it a great place for entertaining guests as well.

As expected from a butcher shop, the flavor of the meat is top-notch! Even in the countryside, it's so delicious that you can't help but smile.

Meimuro Mirai Gyu is a stylish yakiniku restaurant where you can enjoy delicious beef. Their TKG made with Oakleaf eggs is also amazing!
